Our church has been infiltrated with KJVO advocates lately, and it has caused division and gossip behind backs, and attempts to marginalize and demonize those who disagree, and in general a spirit of intolerance and hypocracy. That is how I found your website -- I was researching the topic to answer KJVO advocates. Our pastor is not KJVO, uses a variety of versions in his sermons, but seems powerless before these fanatics. I can verify that these people seem sincere and honest, they seem well versed, and so on, but their fruit is not good! I switched from my old KJV to the NASB in about 1973 best I can remember. When I read it through I found so many texts to be clearer, and most of all I love the marginal references. Recently I purchased a nice ESV for my wife and wish it had a similar reference system, but it seems even clearer in several difficult passages. I am not a Greek or Hebrew scholar, but I have heard the arguments on both sides and I resonate with your reasoning. I am with you completely, Chris!
